Wild and Windy Night (the weather not me!!)

Well it's 5am and my last night watch of my first group of four watches back is nearly over. That means only four weeks before more time off \0/. The four days I work a week actually go pretty quickly, probably because they are such long days. I am always really tired after the day watches and after the nights I just sleep lots.

Not much to tell about what has been going on really. Erin went to the Clothes Show live in Birmingham on Wednesday and spent most of the money we gave her for Christmas. I just have to wrap the things she bought now so she will have something to open on Christmas morning.

Wednesday was also Pub Quiz night and this week we were away to the Yacht Club.

We lost :0( but again it was pretty close 97 v 91. The questions were more cryptic than really quizzy which was a bit disappointing, its not that hard to guess that the opposite to Abdication Lane is Coronation Street!! There were three rounds along those lines including TV, Films and Music, as Ianto, Blodwyn and Myfanwy are all a little older and not really into TV, music and films we struggled a bit, but I did manage to pull back a few 2 pointers but I must hang me head in shame for getting Tom Jones' real name wrong, I shall never live it down!!

Yesterday was my Mum's birthday so later today I shall be going round to see her. She had her two new hearing aids fitted last week so now Wayne and I won't be able to talk about her behind her back any more!! She does say its a great improvement though, she didn't realise she had got as deaf as she was.

I suppose I had better mention a bit about the title of this post otherwise it will seem odd. It was a very wild night last night with 50 mph winds and driving rain, this meant it was pretty quiet so I managed to get all my Christmas Cards written, these will be in the post shortly so I hope you will all be standing by your doorstep in anticipation!!
